All this 'OMG Rhyperior will destroy UU!' talk is quite laughable really, but not that surprising as it has been going on for many months now. IMO, Rhyperior's Solid Rock + slightly better stats overall than Rhydon will be enough to make it a more viable and attractive choice that will surely find its niche in UU, but nothing more.
What interests me the most is what Rhyperior set will be the more efficient wallbreaker? Will it be a simple CB set (with Qwilfish or a faster Grass type waiting in the wings) or Swords Dance + Passho Berry, or even something else entirely? What is slightly disheartening is the fact that Rhyperior needs both SR and one layer of Spikes to OHKO Milotic at +2 without a boosting item, as well as pile on serious pressure and mindgames with the Choice Band set. You can still force Milo to Haze, but it is still much harder to break without both hazards.
